It all started with Denny Diaz. His electric sitar solo on Do It Again is a jazz/blues masterpiece.

Absolutely! I can scat along to every note. As a young teenager from the first time I heard it I knew I'd found my music. A masterpiece all round.

"Skunk" summed it up. Like Tommy Tedesco said, simply, "Learn all you can, and then forget it".

I always equated playing for the Dan like playing for Zappa. All the musicians were the best of the best!

denny dias' solos on green earrings and gold teeth i and ii are both just absolutely killer

This is killer! These guys + Beck+Holdsworth are just the most killer fusion players ever. So many new chords and scales to learn from these guys. Just the best at playing over chord changes

Larry Carlton's first solo album is an absolute gem with the great Jeff Porcaro on drums, what a groove.

Denny Dias and Jay Graydon’s contributions were also amazing. I can’t fathom getting that advanced 😢

@Dan-zq5wt 2 ай бұрын

Jay Graydon did the Peg solo. That thing is a marvel! Also, was it Skunk Baxter on Rikki don’t lose that number? That solo is a masterclass in double stops and so melodic. Those would be my requests for the next two!

You have the guitar on your left leg . Is that a classical or better position than the right leg?

@davestevens4193 2 ай бұрын

For the first three albums SD was an actual band. Skunk and Denny were founding members. B&F joined Dias' band.

Don't count out Jeff "Skunk" Baxter busting Re-Run, for boot-legging a Doobie's show, during a two episode cliffhanger on "What's Happening?"

Solo on Do it Again is just pipped to the post by Larry Carlton on Kid Charlemagne. Musical orgasms!

I’ll say this, Denny and Skunk were what I call “energy” players. Meaning played with a lot of fire and grit. Those that followed and there’s way to many to mention. Didn’t play with that energy. They were smoother and you could probably say were better. That’s up for debate. However, every guitar player for Steely Dan was a monster.

I always appreciated the guitar work on Reeling in the Years! Great stuff!

Love the show,but really wanted to know what Derringer did with SD.I was listening to him when I was playing att 11 yo, when he was with the Winters brothers.Ricks had some great blues albums over the year a semi smooth jazz interpretation of all his hits.Ricks solo from Back in the U.S.A. from the Edgar Winter/White Trash double live album is fantastic,also he has a instrumental called Rhapsody in Red that it just phenomenal

Rick i guess is on show biz kids, my rival, and chain lighting. He plays slide guitar on showbiz kids, and on my rival he’s credited along with hiram bullock for guitars, but neither of them do the solo on that song. I have no idea what rick does on chain lighting so i cant help ya there.

Years ago I played at a benefit for an animal charity and we went on right before Larry Carlton. No band, he just showed up with tracks, including Kid Charlemagne and other Steely Dan tunes he played on, and told amazing stories about the sessions.

I reads somewhere that Jimmy Page’s favorite solo was Reeling in the Years.

Another great episode from you dude. Thank you for putting in the work.

@charlesmartinez222 10 күн бұрын

My mistake, I should have said "September Song", not "I cover the waterfront" as hearing that old tune quoted in the Dean Parks lick. And Gatton does a monster cover of that old tune.

@patrickkish6662 2 ай бұрын

Killer episode. Those licks are total ear candy, man. You got sweetness coming out of your hands. Tasty af👍🏼

@czguy3045 2 ай бұрын

Very nice. That Dean Parks lick is SUPER tasty! I'm definitely stealing that one. Huge Steely Dan/Donald Fagen fan. Probably my favorite Steely Dan lead guitar work is everything in Third World Man. Then on the solo Fagen stuff, some of Jon Herington's lead work on Sunken Condos is great as well.

@Aja-nt 2 ай бұрын

Must have a listen. Jon Herrington's first two solo albums have some brilliant playing on them. Great albums.

@charlesmartinez222 10 күн бұрын

Is the Dean Parks lick a quote of "I cover the waterfront"? Think I've heard Danny Gatton do something like that.

I really thought I would learn more from this video. But it seems more like a basic guitar lick video. Stuff I learned within my first few years of playing. I had to stop watching after about 7 minutes.

For soloing Steely Dan are the tops ! There are so many amazing guitar solos throughout their music. I tend to prefer their earlier albums . One of my all-time favourite solos is Jeff Baxter's solo on 'The Boston Rag' !
